SUMMARY:Communion
DESCRIPTION:Communion or Queer Communion is a project dedicated to remembering and celebrating the lives of marginalised queer people who were murdered for living as themselves. The project is a rejection of the attempts to dismiss\, defile or simply erase LGBTQIA+ people. It started from a need to process on a personal level the emotional impact of news reports of hate crime murders that became increasingly frequent during the Covid pandemic. It has continued in part because of the engagement of those in the community who have reacted positively and encouraged me to continue. \nI believe that hate crime and the manner in which authority and society respond to it act to create an environment of fear\, as well as the sense that LGBTQIA+ lives are disposable and shameful. In spite of this queer people continue to live openly in defiance of attempts to control or police them into compliance. The works are meant to celebrate the simultaneously incandescent and ordinary lives that have been lost\, as well as mourning\, they also are a refusal of the tendency to place the inflicted pain\, death and violence at the centre of how we remember them.  \nThe project is also about visibility\, asking us who is deserving of commemoration and who we are content to erase\, sweep under the carpet. Many of these were create using photographs that were blurry or overly cropped\, and in some sense the accessibilty of photographs has dictated the choice of portraits.  \nThe project consists of a series of portraits that evoke a sense of the sacred through references to spiritual iconography to create spaces for contemplation and stillness. There are currently three forms of the project that are ongoing.  \nAn installation consisting of a 14 sided metal framework that holds 13 portraits that are hand painted on cast acrylic sheeting and act in a similar way to stained glass windows\, was first exhibited at the Spier Light Art Festival in 2021\, and later at the Kopano gathering.  This installation included portaits of Nonhlanhla Kunene; Sphamandla Khoza; Motshidi Pascalina (Pasca); Kirvan Fortuin; Sam Mbatha; Buhle Poswa; Lindokuhle Mapu; Nare Mphela; Bonang Gaelae; Lonwabo Jack; Phelokazi Mqathana; Lindokuhle Cele; Liyabona Mabishi. \nA series of watercolour paintings on paper that aim to act as a commemorative archive. The watercolour paintings allow for a more responsive archive and will continue to evolve and grow in response to the environment as much as is possible.

SUMMARY:IDAHOBITA* 2025
DESCRIPTION:Der IDAHOBITA* ist der internationale Tage gegen Homo-\, Bi-\, Inter-\, Trans- & Acefeindlichkeit – also der internationale Tag gegen jede Form der Queerfeindlichkeit. Der Tag erinnert an die Streichung von Homosexualität von der Liste der psychischen Krankheiten am 17. Mai 1990 durch die WHO (Weltgesundheitsorganisation). \nUm auch dieses Jahr ein deutliches Zeichen gegen die Diskriminierung von queeren Menschen zu setzen\, laden wir euch gemeinsam mit der Stadt Darmstadt herzlich zu unserer Kundgebung unter dem Motto „The power of communities“ am 17.05. um 12:00 Uhr beim Mahnmal „Die Schattenseite des Regenbogens“ neben dem Haus der Geschichte am Darmstädter Herrngarten ein.

SUMMARY:IDAHOBIT* 2025 in Lüneburg
DESCRIPTION:Das Orgateam des IDAHOBIT* 2025 lädt herzlich ein\, sich dem gemeinsamen Spaziergang zum Hissen der Regenbogenfahnen anzuschließen und bei der anschließenden Aktion mitzumachen. \nAblauf für den 17. Mai 2025:\n1) Regenbogenfahne Hissen\n11:30 Uhr bei der Polizeidirektion mit einem Beitrag von PI-Leiterin Stefanie Lerche\n12:00 Uhr die Kreisverwaltung beteiligt sich erstmals mit einem Grußwort stellvertretenden Landrätin Inge Voltmann-Hummes\n12:30 Uhr am Rathaus mit einem Beitrag von Bürgermeisterin Jule Grunau \n2) Von 13-16 Uhr laden wir in die Grapengießer Straße 47 zum Dialograum ein\, um an der Aktion “Händchen halten? Händchen halten!” teilzunehmen: Menschen werden aufgerufen\, mit ihren gleichgeschlechtlichen Partner*innen oder spontan mit Menschen gleichen Geschlechts Hand in Hand einen symbolischen Weg durch die Grapengießer Str. zu gehen\, um gemeinsam für Sichtbarkeit an diesem Tag zu sorgen. \nLiebe öffentlich zu zeigen\, sollte allen Paaren möglich sein – für queere Menschen ist es leider keine Selbstverständlichkeit. Sexualisierende oder abwertende Blicke sind nur eine der diskriminierenden Reaktionen in der Öffentlichkeit. Die Angst vor verbaler oder körperlicher Gewalt verhindert\, dass im Alltag queere Paare oft unsichtbar bleiben\, weil sie sich nicht trauen\, Händchen haltend zu spazieren.\nInnerhalb des Dialograums wird darüber informiert mit welchen Anfeindungen homosexuelle\, bi-\, trans- inter- und weitere queere Personen tagtäglich konfrontiert sind. \nSeid dabei um ein Zeichen zu setzen: Queerfeindlichkeit hat bei uns keinen Platz – Wir stehen für Vielfalt! \nLiebe geht raus\,\ndas IDAHOBIT* Organisationsteam 2025\nQueer in Lüneburg\nCheckpoint Queer e.V.\nBLIST e.V.\nPride Lüneburg\nDie Gleichstellungsbeauftragten der Hansestadt und des Landkreises Lüneburg

SUMMARY:Info campaign: We already know each other
DESCRIPTION:Informational campaign in Ukraine. “We Already Know Each Other” is a campaign about the LGBT+ people who are already part of our lives — friends\, neighbors\, colleagues. It explains how to support them in everyday situations: at work\, in school\, or during casual conversations. The campaign sheds light on what coming out means and why not everyone can do it safely. It helps recognize everyday homophobia\, understand how jokes can hurt\, and why equality needs public support\, not just private acceptance. By fostering empathy and awareness\, the campaign encourages everyone to be active allies and create a more inclusive and respectful society.

SUMMARY:LGBTQIA+ community in Tunisia ... Ongoing violations !
DESCRIPTION:On the occasion of the International Day Against Queerphobia\, (IDAHOBIT)\, the association Damj in Tunisia is organizing a dual event on May 17\, 2025\, aimed at denouncing the ongoing violations of the rights of LGBTIQ+ individuals in Tunisia and urging the Tunisian state to uphold its international commitments. \nThe first event will be a national press conference\, attended by dozens of Tunisian and international media outlets. During this conference\, Damj will present its official response to the falsehoods and inaccuracies contained in the Tunisian state’s reply\, issued in October 2024\, following the letter sent by four United Nations Special Rapporteurs in May 2024 regarding the violations suffered by the association Damj\, its activists\, and the broader queer community. \nThe second event will take the form of a forum bringing together 100 LGBTIQ+ activists as well as representatives from Tunisian human rights organizations. During this gathering\, Damj will present its mid-term report on the implementation by the Tunisian state of the recommendations it accepted between November 2022 and March 2023 as part of the Universal Periodic Review (UPR) before the United Nations Human Rights Council\, particularly those related to the rights of LGBTIQ+ individuals.

DESCRIPTION:On the International Day Against Homophobia\, Biphobia\, and Transphobia (IDAHOBIT)\, Legebitra is organizing a full-day community-centered program focused on intergenerational dialogue\, collective resistance\, and the strength of LGBTIQ+ communities. \nWe will bring together the pioneers of the LGBTIQ+ movement in Slovenia\, who publicly spoke out for equality in the 1980s and 1990s\, with the youngest generation of activists\, who are now fighting on TikTok\, Instagram\, and in the streets. Through conversations\, exhibitions\, and performances\, we will explore the tools and tactics of the past and present and share visions for a more just and inclusive future. \n🌈 IDAHOBIT 2025: Moč skupnosti \n📍Sobota\, 17. maj | Legebitrin mladinski center in dvorišče | Trubarjeva 76a Ljubljana\n🕘 Začnemo z jutranjo kavo\, končamo s piknikom pod mavrico! \nZa letošnji IDAHOBIT pripravljamo praznovanje\, ki prepleta zgodovino\, sedanjost in prihodnost LGBTIQ+ gibanja – skozi pogovor\, umetnost\, kavo\, krofe in kuhanje z ljubeznijo. Pridi\, spoznaj nove obraze\, poklepataj s starimi legendami\, okusi nekaj sladkega in ostani na pikniku\, ki bo še dolgo dišal po solidarnosti. \n🌟 Okrogla miza: Okrogla miza je načrtovana kot osrednji del dogodka\, kot medgeneracijski aktivistični klepet\, v okviru katerega želimo osvetliti pomen in lepoto različnih aktivističnih obdobij v Sloveniji. Med pogovorom\, ki ga bo moderirala Eva Stefanoski\, želimo odpreti prostor za sproščen pogovor in primerjati strategije ter taktike izzivanja sistemske in družbene opresije\, orodja za krepitev skupnosti\, jezik ozaveščanja in načine skrbi zase. \n🎨 Razstava kvir umetnosti\nOdprli bomo razstavo\, ki v ospredje postavlja kvir ustvarjalce – vizualne izjave\, ki so nastale na naših umetniških delavnicah\, bodo krasile mladinski center in dvorišče. Pridi občudovat pogum\, domišljijo in nežnost ujetih trenutkov. \n🥐☕ Piccola Cafe – Jutranji ritual z razvajanjem\nDan bomo začeli v stilu: z nami bodo čudovite Piccola Cafe\, ki bodo s sabo pripeljale baristo\, kavni aparat in kup ljubezni. Kuhale bodo sveže kave za vse udeležence\, zraven pa prinesle veganske rogljičke\, chia lončke in mehke kolačke – vse brezplačno. \n🍩Donut tell! – Krofi in bubble tea za dušo\nMed dnevom nas bodo razvajali tudi iz Donut tell – prinesli bodo slastne Pon de ring krofe in pripravili sveže mešane bubble tea napitke. \n🍴 Piknik s hrano izpod rok Anžeta Kuplenika\nPo okrogli mizi in razstavi sledi popoldansko mreženje in piknik\, kjer bomo uživale v jedeh\, ki jih bomo dan prej skuhale skupaj z zmagovalcem 5. sezone Masterchefa – Anžetom Kuplenikom. \n💜 Pridi z lakoto po znanju\, okusu\, mreženju in umetnosti!\nDogodek je popolnoma brezplačen\, odprt za vse LGBTIQ+ osebe in zaveznike.\nSkupaj praznujmo vidnost\, pogum in skupnost.

SUMMARY:Plantón contra los discursos y prácticas de odio hacia las personas LGBTIQ+
DESCRIPTION:Cada 17 de mayo recordamos que ser quienes somos no debería costarnos la vida. En el Día Internacional contra la Homofobia\, Lesbofobia\, Transfobia y Bifobia (IDAHOBIT)\, nos autoconvocamos para tomar las calles y levantar la voz frente al odio estructural que intenta silenciarnos. \nEn un contexto de retrocesos\, discursos de odio y violencias impunes\, nos plantamos en la Plaza San Francisco con orgullo\, memoria y dignidad. Nos encontramos para visibilizar nuestras luchas\, honrar a quienes ya no están y seguir resistiendo desde el amor\, el cuidado y la acción colectiva. \nEste plantón no solo es una respuesta al odio: es una afirmación política de nuestras vidas y existencias. \n📍 Plaza San Francisco\, Guayaquil\n📅 Sábado 17 de mayo\n🕙 10h00 \nTrae tu cartel\, tu bandera\, tu voz.\n¡Nos vemos en las calles!

SUMMARY:Publication of the Annual Report 2025: An Updated Status of LGBTQI+ Rights in Bangladesh
DESCRIPTION:JusticeMakers Bangladesh in France is proud to announce the launch of its Annual Report 2025: An Updated State of LGBTQI+ Rights in Bangladesh on May 17\, 2025\, at the French National Bar Association Premises\, 180 Boulevard Haussmann\, 75008 Paris\, France. \nNow in its third edition\, this report continues our mission to document\, analyze\, and advocate for the rights of LGBTQI+ individuals in Bangladesh. Building on our previous reports from 2023 and 2024\, this latest edition highlights both progress and persistent challenges faced by the community in a society where full equality remains an elusive goal. \nKey Insights from the Report:\n📌 The impact of political shifts in 2024 on human rights policies\n📌 Ongoing discrimination\, violence\, and stigma fueled by fundamentalist groups\, political parties\, and student movements\n📌 The daily struggles of LGBTQI+ individuals\, from legal and social exclusion to targeted violence\n📌 Inspiring stories of activists and organizations fighting for justice and equality \nBased on extensive research\, media reports\, and firsthand accounts\, this report captures the state of LGBTQI+ rights from January to December 2024. However\, many cases of abuse remain unreported due to fear and societal stigma\, limiting the full scope of these violations. \nDespite these challenges\, this report stands as a critical advocacy tool\, reinforcing the urgent need for systemic change and continued activism. \nJoin us as we unveil this crucial publication and renew our commitment to justice and equality for all.\n🔹 Event Details:\n📅 Date: May 17\, 2025\n📍 Location: French National Bar Association Premises\, 180 Boulevard Haussmann\, 75008 Paris\, France \nJMBF will publish its Annual Report 2024: An Updated State of LGBTQI+ Rights in Bangladesh on May 17\, 2025\, accompanied by an official press release. This third edition of the report continues its mission to document\, analyze\, and advocate for the rights of the LGBTQI+ community in Bangladesh. Building on the previous reports from 2022 and 2023\, this edition highlights both the progress made and the ongoing challenges faced by LGBTQI+ individuals in a society where full equality remains an elusive goal. \nThe full report will be released through an official press statement and will be available both online at www.jmbf.org and in hardcopy\, aligning with the International Day Against Homophobia\, Transphobia\, and Biphobia. \nThe year 2024 brought a mix of hope and hardship. The shift in political power with the new administration in August offered promises of improved human rights protections. However\, discrimination\, violence\, and stigma persisted—exacerbated by the influence of fundamentalist groups\, political parties\, and student movements. \nThis report details the daily struggles of LGBTQI+ individuals\, from legal and social exclusion to targeted violence. It also highlights the courageous efforts of activists and organizations working tirelessly for justice and equality. \nBased on extensive research\, media coverage\, and firsthand accounts\, the report captures the state of LGBTQI+ rights from January to December 2024. Nonetheless\, many incidents of abuse remain unreported due to fear and societal stigma\, limiting the full visibility of these violations. Despite these challenges\, the report serves as a crucial tool for understanding the urgent need for systemic change and continued advocacy.
